Mafia Style Hit on Whistle-blower!

Post by Gabby Newsome »

Hello fellow spacefarers. It’s Gabby Newsome with the news you can use.

I recently told you about a whistle-blower that came forward and implicated widespread corruption in the Inner Galactic Haulers Union and that arrests were imminent.

Well there has been a set-back.

In a Mafia gangland style hit it appears the whistle-blower and his protective detail were taken out!

The fierce firefight took place just this morning and in addition to the whistle-blower and 12 members of the protective detail there were several civilians on the same floor of the hotel that were killed and injured. Exact numbers are difficult to determine due to the amount of damage to the hotel they were staying at and names are being withheld pending notification to family members.

Questions are being raised as to why such a potential target was being held in a location that endangered the public. Authorities are not releasing any comment regarding the location of the whistle-blower but did say that justice against the perpetrators would be swift and sure!

The board of directors of the Milton Orchards hotel chain (where the attack took place) are seeking an unspecified amount of money as compensation stating the government did not tell them the individual was under protective custody and could draw violence and was directly or indirectly responsible for the damage and loss of life.

The Anti Corruption unit says this will not stop the case against the IGHU as they have sufficient evidence even without the testimony of the whistle-blower.

This is Gabby Newsome signing off.
